Elrich should be playing RW.

He can dribble past players, he can cross, he can score goals, he is probably the best wide player we have in all three of these categories.

An attacking full back is not the same as a winger. As Garuccio has shown.

True, but after his first couple of games being very poor on the wing Garuccio has played much better and more comfortable. Some players can play both, Goodwin and Zullo come to mind.

I think Goodwin was hot and cold for AU. At times he was excellent, at times poor. I think Garuccio isn't miles off Goodwin for AU.

Goodwin at LW was a far superior player to Goodwin at RW. I think he was much more hot than cold but he certainly had his off games.

Certainly. I believe Garuccio can develop into a Goodwin or Zullo. But neither are complete players. I'd be happy to see your experiment go ahead as I see Garuccio as far more useful as a wing back for now. I think Elrich as attacking instincts.

Elrich has played upfront in his younger years. I would have thought he would have made a better striker than Cirio. oh well now we have 2 new strikers. Lets see how that goes.

Did not know that and it does explain why he tends to be good in front of goal.

I recall him playing on the wing occasionally for Newcastle.

Newcastle: Elrich won the penalty.
Victory away: Elrich scored our only goal.
ACL away: Elrich scored an offside goal, but got the assist for Babalj's goal.

What will he do next? The armband has a serious positive effect on him.
Adelaide United FC: our club, our city, our state.
